Snowy Grave -Teddy's Journey Ii-
The cold,
It bites, stings, and burns.
And yet,
I stay as the night turns.
Even now,
I can’t feel even your spirit.
You’ve wandered,
So far away, I see it.
Despite it,
I can’t feel a bit of happiness.
I want you,
I know that I am being selfish.
I’d smile,
Wondering how you would react,
To see me,
A new being and in tact.
But now,
You’re just a concrete block.
In town,
I can hear the bell ring for the clock.
I can’t stay,
For I don’t know what I am.
What am I?
Am I a child’s toy or a human?
The sun,
It begins to rise, signaling to me.
It’s time,
For me to leave you be.
I say my eternal goodnight, as you begin to degrade,
And walk away to find my way in life’s parade.
